Yes,It might be easier if you only posted questions on this subject in the thread you have started,
posting in multiple threads ALWAYS causes confusion
Can you confirm whether the engine ECU has been "chip tuned" as Jack suspects - see your original thread ?
the car has the following software:
( but I think the car is very tired/lazy )
Since you know this very well, I ask you how to check/set up the wastegate actuator ?

Well get a stock OEM ECU or flash to stock and rescan the car.

I do know, but I expect you to pick up a book and read it and ask questions based on the repair book that you don't understand?
Why should I write what is already written?

+1
It appears that the chip tune has removed some of the diagnostics in the ECU, which makes fault finding very difficult /impossible.

Since this is discussing the SAME CAR and the SAME FAULT as this thread https://forums.ross-tech.com/showthread.php?19790-1-8T-(-20-V-)-Fault-codes-but-no-MIL-light shouldn't the posts from here be merged into that thread ?????
I can not get hold of the ( http://www.bentleypublishers.com/audi/repair-information/audi-a4-2002-2008-repair-manual.html ) over here in Sweden !
As simple as that.
How can you see from the diagnostics above that the software has been changed ?
What values, etc., are missing and/or incorrect ?

You don't need to get the Bentley book, a FAR better source of information relevant to your car is the erWin website https://erwin.audi.com/erwin/showHome.do
Just create an account, buy a 1 hour subscription and download every document relevant to your car as PDF files

If you took time to JPPSG you'd already know but you are taking shortcuts, now wouldn't you? ...........

1.8T
1. I have erased the 3 error codes and been out driving today for about 80 Km without seen them coming back.
2. Whether my car have modified software or not,
I would like help with checking/setting/adjusting the wastegate arm/actuator in the proper way.
Can somebody help ?
3. Top speed on Autobahn with 102 RON Octane ( 96 AKI/PON Octane ) fuel was only ~205 Km/h on speedo.
and I think it is way to low.
My car have 235/40x18" wheels and Quattro.
Is there anything I can start checking for what makes the car so tired/lacy ?

This is the VCDS OBD section of the forum not mechanical repairs section, no?
Actual Boost & requested Boost in addition to duty cycle of the N75 that controls the WG can be logged in 0x01-08-115 & to surmise the deviation being +/- , no?
https://forums.ross-tech.com/showthread.php?3147-What-is-Jack-talking-about-0x01-08-000
You will not get any help here for instruction of mechanical's or modifications to a car that doesn't comport for a qualified repair, further these questions and setting up the WG should be queried in the RTFB at ERWIN, no, were you not already asked this?
http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/Official_Factory_Repair_Information
Thank you
Did it not already get recommended you remove FOD & to get a valid stack of diagnostics?

English is not my spoken or written language,
so I can have a little difficulty expressing myself and/or understanding your answers.
Have patience with me, THANK YOU
Try to explain to me in a simple and easy-to-understand manner without abbreviations in the text or with subtle answers.
I'm a total Newbie in this VCDS world.
In this forum section it is intended that you should be able to ask questions about how to fix/repair/adjust/set up/check your VAG car and get answers from those who know better than yourself.
I'm not looking to modify or alter my car, just check and if necessary adjust the WG actuator/arm in the best possible way.
But I do not know how to do it
According to the owner's manual, AUDI claims that the top speed of my car should be 223 Km/h ( using 95 RON Octane / 90 AKI/PON Octane )
I did several WOT runs for several miles in a row on the Autobahn and only came up to 205 Km/h ( despite using significantly better fuel 102 RON Octane / 96 AKI/PON Octane )
I think this is strange.
I just wanted to pass on what I discovered with my car and ask here in the thread what I can check firsthand to see if everything is as it should or not with my car.

The RTFB = Hey did you know it means ......... READ THE FACTORY BOOK?
http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/Official_Factory_Repair_Information
Set it up as factory designed test it and then log it with VCDS, no?
Did you know you can log it now too in VCDS?
Did you figure out yet that if you keep asking the same questions, the answer will be the same?

Generic Example no?
1.8T ( 20 V )
but I interpret it as you think the construction with the bushing in the house is poor and that the threaded actuator arm was better on 1.8T ( 20 V ) compared to the newer 2.0 TFSI engine.
Good explanation !
I will look into this and try to make a log of my car.
OK, but what is the factory specified numbers ?
No, I was not aware of that I can log it with VCDS.
Great video !
Then the question is how do I check that my wastegate actuator spring has not lost its tension ?
And how many turns should I preload the wastegate spring ?
How to address the problem with the weak wastegate spring on the K03/29 turbos ?
I'm not sure I fully understand what you're trying to explain aboveJack@European_Parts said:
